Disclosed is a gusset plate connection with sliding end plates for a buckling-restrained brace, including central plate (1), first rib plate (2), second rib plate (3), horizontal end plate (4), first horizontal tie plate (5), second horizontal tie plate (6), bolts (7) and unbonding layers (8). Horizontal end plate (4) is perpendicular to central plate (1) and fixedly disposed on a lower end surface of central plate (1). First horizontal tie plate (5) and second horizontal tie plate (6) are both disposed on an upper surface of horizontal end plate (4) and are located at two sides of central plate (1), respectively. Unbonding layers (8) are each disposed at a bottom surface of horizontal end plate (4), between horizontal end plate (4) and first horizontal tie plate (5), and between horizontal end plate (4) and second horizontal tie plate (6). The components are connected by means of bolts (7).
